Answer:

Age of Seetha is 5 and the age of Geetha is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Seetha be x and let the age of Geetha be y

The age of Geetha added to nine times age of Seetha gives 55

9x + y = 55

y = 55 - 9x --- ( 1 )

Six times the age of Geetha added to eleven times the age of Seetha gives 115

11x + 6y = 115

Substitute eq( 1 ) in the above equation

11x + 6( 55 - 9x ) = 115

11x + 330 - 54x = 115

- 43x + 330 = 115

330 - 115 = 43x

215 = 43x

215/43 = x

x = 5

So, y = 55 - 9( 5 ) = 55 - 45 = 10

Therefore the age of Seetha is 5 and the age of Geetha is 10
